Tips and Details

All attacks excluding Hyper Actives and Master Skills can activate Sudden Strike.
Sudden Strike's Critical Stat is Listed as Unnormalized, meaning this passive is one of the few that could completely ignore some Raid/Challenge Environmental debuffs that reduces critical rate. (which are Also Listed as Unnormalize Reduction on Users Stats)
Sudden Strike's duration and re-activation cooldown starts counting upon gaining the buff, making the actual re-activation cooldown only 3 seconds.

Trivia

Despite the passive belonging to Sheath Knight, the passive icon displays Infinity Sword's weapon.
This passive acts as a replacement for the previous passive, Fighting Spirit, which had the same effect of making all hits critical for a certain period, though it was tied to Brutal Slayer's MP burn effect at the time (which still shares the same activation rate as this passive does).
